Well it has been a long road...

Rorie has always been pretty awesome afaik.

All of the above.

Came here to say how great Matt Rorie is, stayed for the puppies.

Matt Rorie used to be a gentle pug but now he's like a pitbull!

He's awesome!

Rorie is great, though I hope he isn't burning himself out by trying to remove every trace of negativity from Giant Bomb comments.

The best. Big ups to the moderators for what they do.

I voted for super great. If everyone had the same supergreatness as Rorie, there would be no wars.

He's the best, and this pup will deal with anyone who says otherwise!

(I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to deal with the circular arguments on the forums in a civil manner)

I kind of hate that Rorie has to be the one to deal with the worst of the worst, but he is amazing at it, and continues to do a fantastic job interacting with the community all around. Someone get that man a delicious Coca-Cola® beverage, cooled to exactly 33°C.

@clonedzero: I'd take Enterprise over the first season of TNG, come at me!

That being said Rorie is probably the MVP of Giantbomb. It's awesome how much work he puts into trying to keep this a nice site to be a part of.

He's great. He had me at that first DS quicklook. He should be doing more of that type of stuff btw.

You know I keep thinking that one of us should use these butter up threads to ask Rorie about Alpha Protocol and his time at Obsidian in general.

AP is no lie one of my top 5 RPGs from the 7th generation. Aside from a few odd comments he's made in past shows I don't think he's ever talked about it. Hell, nobody who worked on it ever talks about it (that I know of).

greatest ever of all time ever.

Yea, i imagine this is very stressful for him, just had a recent run in with him about my bombcast comment, and he was a gentleman about the whole thing.

Rorie is the greatest, and the mods work is very much appreciated. However, even though I like a cute puppy as much as the next person, his puppy fascination completely confounds me.

Rorie gets props for actually participating in the community, unlike those other people. I only like dogs that don't bark.

Basically the best

Rorie is the fliest, most dapper motherfucker here. He's the One True Community Manager (I have no idea what your title is), and reading "I just wanted to play some Divinity" on twitter genuinely made me really sad. May there always be puppies in your life.

You're great.

But what is the common opinion of the cat lobbyists?

What garbage i came to this thread SPECIFICALLY for pictures of welsh corgi puppies only!

So hook a duder up ;)

@rorie you continue to amaze me with your saintly patience and dedication to the community. GB is so much richer for your presence.

That dog is addicted to balls look at him he's got the shakes it ain't cute it's sad he should be in rehab if not he'll be selling all the silverware to get his next fix with a pack of tennis balls.

Holy fucking shit this is incredible

I mean, he's pretty great but Alpha Protocol was pretty meh so I dunnoooooooo

Yo, why isn't "It's been a long road..." not even an option?!

But I digress, Rorie is the greatest for being able to commit and put up with are shenanigans and antics!

Wait, it's been several days. Are we still talking about how great Rorie is?

Good.

@vahleticar: Rorie transcends talking about Alpha Protocol for no reason.

I appreciate up all night, possibly coked up Rorie.

He responded to an email I sent him on a Monday night almost instantly, as if we were chatting with each other on an instant messaging platform.

That's how great he is.

edit: Also I had never seen coked up Club Rorie before, so now I'm watching that.

Rorie is so great he once broke up a fight between a shark and a bear.

hey rorie's pretty cool. still kind of a damn nerd tho. :D

also reptiles>rodents>cats>dogs, but dogs are still pretty cool!

i'm going to get banned aren't i

@bisonhero: Mildly-bewildered, overheating, post-ravey M.R. may be the best possible M.R.

I just watched the pathfinder stuff, yeah he's pretty great!

In part one Rorie is dying for a smoke. Bless him

I haven't been active enough to understand how much his work helps the forums, but I've been spent a lot of time just reading threads here and it's without doubt one of the best forum climates I've ever experienced so he seems to do a great job and kudos to the moderators as well. I would however like to se him in more content, he was great in the new Pathfinder video.

Apparently I voted for all the options at some point... I stand by my vote.

i think matt rorie is really fun and cool fucc haters matt ur the best dont let nobody tell you different i love u

Rorie is the guy we all are. But in reality he gets up to much more

When Rorie was the odd man out in the Whiskeyocalypse, I was pretty bummed. I got into Screened because of Giant Bomb, and fell in love with the Rorie/Navarro pairing. At the time, I was a bigger fan of their podcast than the Giant Bombcast.

He is incredible at what he does, and I am extremely happy that he was able to land on his feet at Giant Bomb after a rough year for him.

@gamerchicck: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh my god.

"He's the law around these parts, but I'm an outlaw! CHOMP!"

I love Rorie on UPF. He makes the silliest comments and asks such dumb questions that no one can ever tell if he's serious or not. Whenever he's on I just crack up. Also, behind the scenes he works hard on moderating and managing everything, which is quite a task. Was Matt Rorie a discovery or an invention?

@rorie You look great in blue

. Take them glasses off ahhhwhhaaaa

RORIE RULES

Dude, Rorie, you're like so cool man. Like, woah.

@bisonhero: One of my favourite moments. The way he just walks in through the shot as if they're not livesteaming, wearing shades inside and looking fly as fuck. So so good.

P.S. I voted for every option because I could.

Rorie fought on a bet with Superman. Whoever lost had to wear their underwear on the outside of their pants.
